Doodle before bed of Lyng as a teen/young adult, pre-Calamity. He had long mullet-y hair until post-Heavensward (he usually braided it). And aether freckles/streaks of aether in his hair until post-Endwalker.

Going to be fighting Ozma for the first time!! We're gonna try it blind first - and then I'll be accepting hints if/when I get totally screwed over LMAO

Going back to Final Fantasy 9 tonight!! Let's see if we can get to the true end game. www.twitch.tv/meowtroid

Trying to decide what to stream tonight. I need to grind more in Dark Souls, didn't get a chance because of, like, yknow, this whole week being what it was. Maybe it's a return to FF9 kinda night.

Old commission I had done of my alt, where his partner is trying to teach him to read Eorzean. I love how he is almost twice as big as his partner and yet is sitting in his lap in this picture. From @takibert.bsky.social back in the Twitter days

This is important.

Hastings museum had an LGBT history exhibit and there was a bit on a trans guy and a cis woman who married in 1954 that I found moving

Pan, my guinea pig, passed away suddenly today 😞

Guinea pig bills racking up. Not confident this isn't going to cost me another grand. God I'm so sick of the expenses this year.

"Zenos, if you could had to choose to fuck, marry, or kill-" "The Warrior of Light." "Wait, which one-" "All three."

Job went from confusing but dead and boring to confusing and stressful. 👍 At least I'm not really sitting around anymore.

“Only a robot is this shitty at drawing hands.”

The people cry out for Jarnathan

More Dark Souls: Remastered!! Seath is dead, the world's our oyster. www.twitch.tv/meowtroid

Kinda wanna redo this super super old art, but I'm still proud of the shading on it even if I wish the lineart was better. #ffxiv #aymeric

Another wip of Lyng #wol #ffxiv

Cleaned up my balcony including my little mini pond. Nice and relaxing out here.

Chapter 5: The Pale Prince's Fury is here! Theoden and Mohg agree to take Prince Radahn down to the Shunning-Grounds so he may see the sewer prison himself. But Morgott is utterly furious that they would dare to bring any stranger to their home. archiveofourown.org/works/836274...

One thing Twitter had over Bluesky: managing multiple accounts was way easier on Twitter. I could retweet something to a specific account while still being logged into my main.

I wanna live on my FFXIV Bluesky account and never come back. Probably a sign I need to purge the folks I'm following (I'm sorry)

As promised, my Zenos/Warrior of Light fanfic, A Mutual Attraction, featuring my Xaela Warrior of Light and an alternate version of In From The Cold. Entirely non-consensual, please be mindful! #ffxiv #zenos #wol #zenos/wol archiveofourown.org/works/85657216

Lyng was the only child of his mother and father, and his only living blood relative is his grandmother, the Khatun of the Angura. He doesn't know any of this. He was adopted and raised by an Ala Mhigan Hellsguard when he was only a toddler, and she may or may not be dead by now.

I signed with a literary agent :) I’m now represented by @mmmlysaght.bsky.social and we’ll be working together to pitch my previous graphic novels to publishers, starting with Blade of the Fane

Posting this for the sake of reference for that fic I'm about to share with y'all. Lyng as he was during the notorious "In From the Cold" quest.

*It is done.* I'll post it when I get home, expect it around 6:30ish EST

We need to tar and feather AI bros and sam altman

So done with giant expenses coming at me from out of nowhere tbh. Guinea pig has a massive lump that appeared out of nowhere, and while I'm getting him taken in for a vet visit, I have utterly no money for whatever treatment they'll propose.

It required so much more editing than I anticipated because I kept making all these different little decisions and changing my mind so there's a bunch of little continuity errors I need to go over with a fine toothed comb. But expect it very soon.

This was a design I'd made for Lyng's voidsent some years ago, I'm thinking of doing yet another pass on him. He's a Blackguard, actually, the idea was this was him without his armor on. I think I could do something more elegant and in line with the game's style though. #ffxiv #ocart

Fun headcanon: Zero is Zenos's reflection from the 13th Funnier headcanon: Vauthry is both their reflection from the 1st

Btw I now have a separate account just for my FFXIV shenanigans, so I don't clog up this one. I WILL still reblog fat cats, tho. She's too perfect.

Trying to get back into drawing more - decided to sketch my Warrior of Light, using his actual in-game model as a ref Sometimes when I draw him, my style makes him look a lot different than his model in-game which can be frustrating, cause his in-game model is how he looks in my head.

The wol/zenos fic should be done tonight. It's already over 6.3k words.

I love the Dark Souls online community they're so helpful with their placement of messages

Alright I did it. Made an FFXIV specific account - @reap-the-light.bsky.social Can't promise how much I'll use it, but I am getting pretty back into XIV finally

Another wip of Lyng #wol #ffxiv

I need to keep writing Bloodbound, but I can't stop thinking about what'll come after it. Minor spoiler, Morgott and Theoden's relationship will be mostly broken by the end of Bloodbound. But when they meet again in the future, Theoden won't remember this - only that he cares for Morgott

big neon catte #hazeartebus

Feeling bad I put a sad debuff on folks by accident - sorry to those who I made sad Feeling like Pocket Cat where he gives you a depression side effect just by talking to him too much

Hello Mozgus Berserk Hello Tony Tony Chopper...

More Dark Souls Remastered!! We're trapped in the Duke's Archives www.twitch.tv/meowtroid

Never shared this old, old, old commission I had done of Lyng - mostly because I didn't actually use this glam for very long (it didn't actually suit him very well) Still a gorgeous piece though, shame I never shared it

Friend got it for me, it's this song. Forgot it was actually from patch 7.4 - I did both patches back to back so I forgot if it was in 7.4 www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...

It's this song. I haven't heard it in previous patches that I recall? And no one's uploaded it!! Is this from another Final Fantasy or is this a unique track to FFXIV?
